The Chatterbowl records your purrsonal message and plays it anytime your pet nears the bowl. You can entice, cajole or threaten your cat to eat, or simply tell her that you love her and miss her. Optionally, you can buy a motion-activated TalkBox so that you can tell Fluffy to get off the counter, or just mess with her head.
